This one has been quiet for a while

Quiet is not dead — but it is worth knowing when it wakes up, or when someone else takes it over. We watch the repository and tell you either way.

Available tools 4

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

events
search_events
Search map events: battles (Wikidata), UCDP armed-conflict events since 1989, volcanic eruptions VEI 4+ (Smithsonian GVP), significant earthquakes (NOAA), witnessed meteorite falls, and UNESCO World Heritage sites (undated). Month/day bounds match only events recorded at least that precisely; undated heritage sites match only searches without a date bound. Results are sorted by date.
polity
find_polity
Look up a state or empire by name or any of its Wikidata labels and aliases (substring, case-insensitive), or by Wikidata QID. Returns its lifespan, every border snapshot with its bounding box, and links.
video
create_video_link
Build a link that opens RewindMap's short-video maker preloaded with a map clip: borders (and optional event layers) changing from one year to another over a place, with an optional title and map labels. The visitor opens the link and taps Download to get a watermarked MP4 (vertical 9:16 for Shorts/Reels/TikTok, or landscape). Rendering happens in the visitor's browser; this tool returns the link only, never a video file.
world
world_at_year
List states, empires and cultures with an OpenHistoricalMap border snapshot in a given year, optionally overlapping a region. Coverage is incomplete; an empty result does not establish historical absence.

RewindMap — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can RewindMap do?
It exposes 4 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: create_video_link, find_polity, search_events, world_at_year. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is RewindMap working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 106 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
Is RewindMap still maintained?
The linked repository no longer exists on GitHub — it was deleted or made private. We show this because it changes what you can expect: an unmaintained server may keep answering for months and then stop without warning.
How do I connect RewindMap?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does RewindMap need an API key?
No. RewindMap completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 4 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is RewindMap?
It answers our handshake in 106 ms on average, which is faster than 82% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
